Here’s a winter take on a summer favourite. Serve the beef alongside the toasted baguette slices and have guests assemble OR spoon beef mixture into ready-made croustades for an easy one-bite appetizer. Make speedy Wilted Spinach as an option to serve as a baguette topping under the beef if you like.
Ingredients
Directions
1. Heat 1 tbsp (15 mL) of the oil in large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Pan-fry onion, garlic, rosemary and thyme until onion is tender, about 3 minutes. Add red pepper; cook until softened, about 4 minutes. Transfer to bowl.
2. Add remaining oil to pan and heat over medium-high heat; cook beef, stirring occasionally, until browned, about 3 minutes. Add to bowl containing pan-fried vegetables. Add wine and vinegar to pan; cook, stirring occasionally, until reduced by half, about 5 minutes. Pour over beef and peppers; toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper.
3. Serve with Wilted Spinach (if desired) and toasted baguette slices.
